Our new Première range perfectly captures what has always been the philosophy of the brand
harnessing and of course channeling your power.
For the
Kérastase
hair is a gateway to a world of absolute power.
The message “Recover your inner strength” goes beyond the look and feel of hair,
unlocking countless possibilities to be strong in our professional and personal lives.
In just a moment, you will discover the amazing scientific achievements that led to the development of the Première-
a range that restores the strength of the hair, always with the unparalleled,
luxury care for which Kérastase is well known.
Première was originally born after an unprecedented scientific discovery that showed that the calcium in water
intensifies the effects of damage to the hair.
This finding was the trigger to create a range that first removes calcium salts and
then repairs the hair by restoring the keratin bonds.
With Première, we repair hair even deeper, more effectively and over a longer period of time.
With the launch of Première, our motto You Dare, We Care is more true than ever.
Our wonderful ambassadors, Emily Ratajkowski and Ebonee Davis, continue to embody this motto every day, inspiring us to express ourselves freely and unabashedly today and forever. Rosa Carriço, President of Kérastase
Calcium is not your hair’s friend
Instead, it intensifies the wear with every shampooing!
Water is good for us. But it’s not so good for our hair.
In the water we use for showering and bathing, there are high amounts of calcium.
Calcium is like kryptonite for our hair:
By accumulating over a long period of time, it can lead to persistent wear and tear.
Calcium build-up leads to breakage
Calcium stays on the surface of the hair, between the scales of the cuticle,
making the hair wild in texture, but also dull.
So it’s like a glass with white marks from the salts in the water, that’s kind of what happens to hair,
so you can see why this is far from desirable.
Calcium can penetrate deep into the hair so over time, it makes the hair inelastic,
stiff and brittle, especially if in the meantime the hair is also subjected to technical operations.
This is exactly the persistent wear and tear we mentioned earlier – wear and tear that does not go away, even after a long time.
Salt removal : How is it done?
We hear repeatedly, from many, many women, that they have not been able to get rid of the wear and tear,
whatever they’ve tried.
The problem is therefore in the calcium salts that are present in the water and weaken the hair.
After 12 patents and more than 600 trials, we found the right combination of Citric Acid
(for removal of calcium salts) and Glycine (for repairing wear and tear) and incorporated it
in the compositions of the Première series.
Citric acid, at a concentration of 3%, and thanks to the three arms of its molecular structure, binds and removes calcium.
Glycine, at a concentration of 5%, is small enough to penetrate the deeper layers of the hair and
restore its strength.
Et voilà! The hair returns to its original state.

Advanced Innovation
At Kérastase, based on advanced research, we develop innovative solutions for the main hair needs.
In the case of Première, we used the highest concentration of pure acids than in any
our other range of products to date, with the aim of combating the problem of calcium accumulation and
help the hair to return to its original state.
High Performance Compositions
Première owes its innovative performance to the synergistic action of Citric Acid which removes
calcium, but also Glycine which ensures remediation with a combined concentration of 8%,
as well as the Peptides that smooth the surface of the hair.
An aura of power
The Première fragrance was created by French perfumers Alexandra Carlin and Catherine Poensin Stefani.
As with all Kérastase ranges, the Première fragrance is instantly recognisable and undeniably
will become a classic fragrance.
